E-Donate program to aid veterans

The Chillicothe VA Medical Center announced Tuesday the availability of E-Donate, an online donation option at www.chillicothe.va.gov/giving/ that will provide community members who want to give back to veterans at the medical center a way to pledge their support to the fund of their choice.

"We've known for years that our citizens want to show their support to the service members who defended their freedoms," VA Medical Center Director Wendy J. Hepker said. "While not everyone will have the time to volunteer, now anyone can take five minutes online to thank veterans in any number of ways."

The E-Donate option allows donors to select from a variety of funds to donate to at the medical center. Additionally, the Department of Veterans Affairs administrative costs are appropriated, so donors can be sure 100 percent of their money goes to the funds they select and the VA patients they choose to support.

Donors can find the E-Donate button at www.chillicothe.va.gov. The actual donation is made through a secure site at the Department of Treasury's www.pay.gov site. A minimum of $5 is required for online donation. There are no additional fees.

Call Voluntary Services at the Chillicothe VA, 740-773-1141, extension 7420, for more information.
